No, it's just intentionally different behaviour (check the source code
history).  If you're really that concerned about the minuscule
resource usage involved, then you'd surely want to build your own
stripped down kernel anyway to remove the many other things in GENERIC
that you don't need, together with NFS_CLIENT.

They do, if you have NFS_CLIENT enabled in your kernel.

*laughs* Right, that must be it, Bob.

It's not broken.
